Logs 3.1 innings as bulk reliever Seymour allowed two runs on two hits and three walks while striking out three over 3.1 innings of bulk relief in Sunday's 8-3 win over the Angels.

Impact Entering after 1.2 innings from Casey Legumina, Seymour totaled 72 pitches (41 strikes) and allowed both of his runs in the fifth inning, his final frame, including a solo homer by Donovan Walton. Sunday marked Seymour's second extended outing after he started and covered four innings Monday, having previously logged no more than two innings in any appearance this season.

Impact Seymour made his second start of the season in his previous appearance Monday versus Boston, where he allowed just one run while setting season highs in pitches (55) and innings (four). The left-hander is expected to fill the bulk role Sunday, though the Rays haven't officially confirmed those plans and could go in a different direction. It's been an up-and-down campaign for Seymour, who has a 4.89 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB over 35 innings this year.

Through 35 innings, Seymour has a 4.89 ERA, 1.26 WHIP and 38:16 K:BB.
